Orioles Fall 7-2 on Opening Day
Trey Mancini had a day at the plate as a DH, Andrew Cashner failed as a fill in starter, and several defensive highlights marked the Orioles first real game of the 2019 season
Player of Game:
Trey Mancini of course!
Starting Pitching:
– Andrew Cashner pitched into the fourth inning and was charged with six of the Yankees seven runs. He struggled with command, gave up a big three run first inning home run and was certainly not impressive. Cashner walked four and struck out three with six earned runs over four innings.
Highlighted hitting moments:
– In the 1st inning, second baseman Jonathan Villar singled to break up Yankee starter Masahiro Tanaka’s no hitter. He singled again to go 2-for-4.
– Trey Mancini went three-for-four with a double.
– Chris Davis struck out three times from the seven hole of the lineup.
Highlighted pitching moments:
– David Hess pitched two and a third scoreless innings allowing two walks and a single.
Highlighted defensive plays
– The Orioles infield turned three double plays. Richie Martin looked good at shortstop.
– Joey Rickard made a catch.
He also made a throw like a teener baller.
